My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Chapter 50 Farewell to Langzhou

"Alright, just keep spoiling him!"

Wu Fan took a few deep breaths, his gaze deepening. He raised his teacup to bid farewell, "We've talked a lot today. I'll visit the Prime Minister's residence another day." Enjoy new stories from empire

"Alright."

Sima Qin nodded and didn't linger. He stood up with the Grand Tutor to take their leave.

"General Wu, regarding the matters in Langzhou, His Majesty has made a decree, prohibiting our intervention... I hope you won't act on your own." Sima Qin advised.

"I understand!"

Wu Fan showed some impatience, waved his hand, and returned to his room. A decree from His Majesty? Haha, it must be you, Sima Qin, handling it...

Dismissing the attendants, Wu Fan scanned the room and asked the maid beside him, "Yuan'er hasn't been home for days. Where has he been fooling around?!"

The maid hurriedly replied, "Master, Young Master didn't return home last night. He stayed at the Melody Pavilion..."

"Damn it, ask him to come back and see me immediately!"

Wu Fan scolded angrily, venting his frustration and dismissing the maid.

At this moment, the room was finally empty, leaving only him.

After a while, Wu Fan's eyes flickered. He took out a command token from the bookshelf and muttered to himself, "Ancestors above, what I'm about to do, I hope you won't blame me. It's an unavoidable act as a subject."

"Since she can't be a good emperor, let me cleanse the court and the ministers... even if I have to use external forces!"

...

Outside the General's Residence, Sima Qin and Minister Su didn't take a carriage. The two elderly men, both well past their prime, walked side by side, slowly returning to the Residence.

The two remained silent along the way. It wasn't until they reached a sparsely populated area that Sima Qin couldn't help but speak up, "Grand Tutor, what Wu Fan said is not without reason."

"Are you not afraid that your own student might go astray?"

Unexpectedly, when these words were spoken, the Grand Tutor narrowed his eyes, smiled meaningfully, and looked at him.

"Prime Minister, are you testing me?"

"...Where did you get that idea!"

Sima Qin awkwardly smiled, wiping away his sweat.

"Humph! As you said, this old man's student. How could I not know her character?" The Grand Tutor stroked his long beard, saying leisurely.

"You also guessed?"

After a moment of silence, Sima Qin asked.

"She's not here. I've known that for a long time."

The old Grand Tutor nodded, slowly walking forward.

"But I won't ask where she went or what she's doing. I just hope that in my remaining years, I can see her fulfill her wishes, see her achieve what she desires."

Liu Yexi agreed, feeling a inexplicable excitement. After more than a year, Her Majesty was finally returning to the palace! Compared to the melancholy when she left, she seemed much happier after marrying the young master...

Now that they had entered the Queen's imperial city, the young master probably wouldn't be able to escape!

...

In the evening, Gu Lan and his party checked into an inn.

Similar to their teahouse back home, the first floor served as a dining area. After putting away their luggage in their respective rooms, the three of them ordered dinner.

Before the dishes arrived, several men at the adjacent table, seemingly drunk with flushed faces, casually glanced at Lin Tan'er from Gu Lan's table. They kept staring.

"This girl looks so lively!"

"Her big buttocks are perfect for childbirth. We've never seen such a perfect girl around here!"

"The boy next to her is really lucky, damn it!"

...

A few lascivious laughs reached their ears. Lin Tan'er blushed, looked at Gu Lan, and didn't want to cause him any trouble. She said, "Master, I'm not hungry. I'll go rest first."

"Eat first."

Gu Lan held Lin Tan'er's soft hand and said lightly, as if he hadn't noticed those men at all.

Lin Tan'er felt strangely relieved. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.

At this moment, the drunkards, seeing their indifference, became even more presumptuous. They began pointing and making comments about the three:

"That tender little girl, Master, I've got money here. Would you consider coming to play with me tonight?"

"We guarantee you'll enjoy it!"

"Hahaha!"

...

Lin Tan'er blushed even more and looked at Gu Lan with a pleading expression.

"Damn, trying to take advantage..." Gu Lan just shook his head, not letting Lin Tan'er leave. He gently placed the chopsticks down and cast a faint glance in their direction.

The drunkards, upon feeling his gaze, initially intended to mock, but in the next moment, their bodies trembled strangely.

Several pairs of eyes gradually filled with horror, and two faint trails of blood tears slowly flowed down.

The expressions of everyone at their table became extremely dull!

The restaurant staff bringing dishes out were left in shock!

After respectfully placing the dishes on Gu Lan's table, they didn't dare to look around and hurriedly returned.

At this moment, Lin Tan'er and Old Yang had yet to notice the strange behavior of the people at the nearby table. Their attention was on the newly served dishes.

Gu Lan silently took a sip of tea. The drunkards silently collapsed onto the table, seemingly passing out as if dead...
